IMPROVEMENT IN CLOTHES-BOILERS.

The Schedule referre to :in these Letters Patent and making part ofl the same.

To all whom it 'may concern Be it known that I, DANIEL KELLOGG, of Ypsilanti, in the county of VVashtenaw, and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clothes-Boilers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a top Vview of my invention, when in povwhich are soldered to the plate b b, and open into the space m m, between the bottom, E, of the boiler, and the bottom plate b b, the latter plate being raised by the ange o o, which is soldered to the plate b b, and

to the perforated plate a a, leaving an enclosed space, n n, between them, as shown.

V-shaped plates, l d, zZ d, l d, are aixe'd immediately underneath the slot-openings e e made in the plate b b, whereby the water, within the space 'n yn escapes downward into the space an 1n, and is again forced upward through the base-chambers B into the pipes A, and thence out through the curved spouts f f f, where it falls upon the clothes, and passes downward again through them, to be again circulated, as above described.

The caps D, to which the spouts f j' f are soldered, tit with easy contact upon the pipes A A A, as shown,

Y and are slipped up or down upon the said pipes, to adv just the apparatus to boilers of diierent heights, and

are to be removed to permit the placing of the clothes in the boiler.

G is a faucet, for drawing oif the dirty water from the boiler.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure `by Letters Patent- 'v The removable caps D, with their branch-spouts f, lwhen combined with the perforated and slotted plates c b, as herein shown and described.

DANIEL KELLOGG.
